Mile…Mile and a half

1. A hiker’s response to “How much further?”

Miles

Miles is a nerd, a bit of a geek. He's pretty funny, definitely unique. This is a poem, and here's a critique; what's strong in his mind he lacks in physique. He's fun and he's smart and he's nice and he's cool, but weird and high tempered and kind of a fool. Smart but a dumbass, somehow a fusion; but the good traits and the bad traits are what make Miles human.
